HCH2 Nav "auto" day/night mode
In my 2006 HCH, my Nav screen never switches to "night" mode, even though I have it set to "auto" and the headlights on. The daytime screen is very bright at night, but switching manually to the night setting is a pain.
Does this happen to you or is there something wrong with mine?
Thanks,

Not sure if it works the same as in the Prius but in the prius if you have your instrument cluster dimmer set to max (there is a click in the end) the screen will not switch to night mode. I had thid problem on my loaner Prius and saw the anwser on priuschat.com

THANK YOU! That was it. When I clicked it down one notch I now get the night setting when my headlights are on. I don't know why they would do that, given the setting for "Day/Night/Auto" in the Nav setup. Probably says something about this in the manual, of course that would require my actually opening it.
I really like this car. Funny, I now find myself cheering for the price of gas to go up...
Thanks again,
